Dinosaurs went extinct about 65 million years ago and they left amazing fossils throughout the world as a reminder that they used to rule the Earth. But did you know that some dinosaurs are still alive today? Don’t panic, I’m not talking about dinosaurs that may try to eat you alive, like in the Jurassic Park movies. I am talking about birds. Yes, birds! Scientists discovered that birds are not just related to dinosaurs, they ARE dinosaurs!
